'I would argue that this book makes a valuable contribution with new materials for those interested in OPM and project work. It takes an organisational-level perspective in the main and fills a number of gaps in the current book-level literature. … I would recommend that this book be considered as a serious reference book and that for many students and practitioners that this would be a highly valuable resource.'
